Passementerie yokes, with or withou
beads, are seen upon some very elaborat

harmony with the color of the silk.
The style ola dress of the present tim
is made to depend largely upon the ma

Bengalines and other soft materials re
quire folds and loopings to make Their
effective.
Pretty novelties in passementeries ar
being constantly brought out. Some o
the newest, which are very subdued il
effect, have threads of gold twisted wit
the silk. Open passementeries of gold
silver and steel, when used for dres
trimmings, are sometimes placed frs
upon fiat bands of velvet ribbon.
